Which part of this excerpt from Voltaire’s Candide best develops the theme that different people find value in different things?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Excerpt from Voltaire's Candide

Theme: Different people find value in different things.

The theme above is best developed by the request of Earth made by Candide and Cacambo.  The king regards this "Earth" as "yellow clay."

Explanation:

It can be inferred from the excerpt that the European visitors know the value of "the earth of the country", which is for them like a productive mother that gives birth to innumerable children.  But for the king and his countrymen, the earth was just mere "yellow clay," sterile and without value.

What one undervalues, another values immensely because there is a gap in their knowledge.  Abundance of some resources fools those who dwell on top  of the resources.  Whereas for those who understand the rarity of the resources, they experience scarcity of it because the demand for the resources would outstrip the supply.  This is paradoxical.

Read the passage from the opinion of the court in Dred Scott v. Sandford, written by Justice Taney.
Ratling [72]

The correct answer is "Taney fails to provide any actual evidence for his statements that African Americans were universally considered inferior". In a court of law, a party's claim is a counterclaim if one party asserts claims in response to the claims of another. The Supreme Court decision Dred Scott v. Sandford was issued on March 6, 1857. This declared that slaves were not citizens of the United States and could not sue in Federal courts. It was delivered by Chief Justice Roger Taney.

"A Sound of Thunder" is a work of science fiction, yet there are realistic aspects to the story. In your opini
andrey2020 [161]

Bradbury did not create a believable story, as it has elements that are impossible to happen in reality.

<h3>What are the unrealistic elements in the story?</h3>
  • Time travel.
  • Machines that go back to the past.
  • Humans visiting dinosaurs.
  • Human-caused changes in past events.

"A Sound of Thunder" is a great work of science fiction and although Bradbury has created a very well-structured narrative, many elements are extremely unrealistic and impossible to be believable, which reinforces the fictional nature of the work, even if it presents real aspects.

The main unbelievable element is the possibility of traveling in time and causing changes in the past that modify the entire future.
